Quality is awesome. stiff enough and a lot less body roll, after they sagged a little i was very pleased with the new height of the car

Kinda small things lately, car had a bad vibration at high speeds

so new tires and alignment.





The adjustments took forever, wonder if its ever had one lol  :-\



PS pressure hose started leaking so i bought that, just gotta go by driftmotion sometime and pick up the crush washers since no one else has those.

Well im very disappointed, my car is still having a major vibration. I notice however that it worsens when i brake, also after driving i feel the heat from both sides and the driver is much hotter than the passanger, so im leaning towards the brakes hopefully



New Driver Side Caliper Installed,



Nasty Ass Brake Fluid, Bled the whole system.



also new sticker lol  ;D

Will update this once i go for a drive on the freeway tomorrow.

you might want to check your bearings also, my car had a mean vibration at high speeds and braking and it was the front wheel bearings.

Ya its still consistent, so ive lowered it down to wheel bearings like you said, ball joints, and/or bushings.



So i got some new Moog Lower Front Ball Joints at work

Also Took a Drive to my favorite place on earth!!!!!  ;D



DRIFTMOTION FTW! lol



Got a new Tail shaft seal for my W58(left), 16mm crush washers for the powersteering house i have to do (center), And new Rack Bushings (Right)...

Will update this when i finish putting this stuff together.
